Ian Watt: Hi good afternoon it's Ian Watt
in Downtown Vancouver. Of course when we sign up a listing it's states
with the commission. But I got an email from a perspective client the
other day and they asked a simple question. If they bring their own
buyer to the table when they're selling their place do they have to pay
the full commission? And the answer is very simple yes they do because
the contract that we signed the commission up for states how much
they're gonna pay for my services. Now it doesn't matter whether another
avenue of marketing brings in that buyer whether you posted it on
Craigslist and I didn't even know that you did another add on Craigslist
and another buyer comes through. Yes, if I'm handling a property what
stated on the contract is what you're going to pay. Now on top of that
if another realtor brings the buyer what happens is I split that
commission with the other realtor but nonetheless it doesn't mean that
the commission is cut in half if you bring a family member, if you bring
someone off the street or someone within the building wants to buy the
condo that were marketing. Regardless from where the buyers come from if
I sell it I'm getting the commission which we all agreed upon from day
one. My name is Ian Watt and if you have any questions. You can always
email me at ianwatt@ianwatt.ca. Thank you very much and have a great day!
